The present invention relates to a system for incorporating all or part of a database and/or data sources and data management interface into a transferable file that is in the form of a platform-independent, intelligent document and provides a user in real-time with a platform-independent file having data and a data management interface. The intelligent cross-platform document is generated by synthesizing information from diverse data sources, such as, but without limitation, database, architecture files, icons, images, reference data files, web links. The generation of the file encapsulated with data and an information management interface may be conducted in real-time and allows for all or part of an information management system to be transferred in a cross-platform file to a user that is not directly connected to the information management system.
Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
1. A computer system including a processor under the control of software for transferring at least a portion of an information management system comprising: a file for use on a computing device; a generating engine to generate in real-time said file by synthesizing information from diverse data sources, said diverse data comprises a database, architecture files, icons, images and reference data files; said file is encapsulated with data including layered objects ordered by a database layer hierarchy and an information management interface for managing the display of one or more layered objects on a display; wherein said file is then transferable to a user that is not directly connected to the information management system wherein said generating engine includes a template parsing engine for collecting data from database layer hierarchy, database infrastructure information, file references, web references and database visual and data information; such that said file is configured with: layered objects in response to said database layer hierarchy; bookmarks in response to said database infrastructure information; embedded files in response to said file references; web links in response to said web references; and data and visual objects in response to said database and visual information, wherein said information management interface includes a control to adjust resolution of said file viewed on the display wherein changing resolution in different degrees gives plurality of distinct views, the plurality of distinct views comprises a map view, a rack view and a street view.
2. The system of claim 1 wherein said file is portable to different computing platform architectures.
3. The system of claim 1 wherein said file is password protected.
4. The system of claim 1 wherein the information management system can accommodate at least two types of users where a first type has full access to said information management system and said second type has reduced access to said information management system.
5. The system of claim 4 wherein: for said first type user, said file is generated in real time upon a request; wherein said second type user can request said file in real time tailored to a user task.
6. The system of claim 5 wherein said generating engine include file templates tailored to information permission levels; whereby said second type users are each assigned to at least one of the information permission levels.
7. The system of claim 6 wherein users access templates at an assigned user level from a server running said generating engine and connected remotely via an internet connection; said generating engine utilizes said templates to configure said to said user task.
8. The system of claim 1 wherein said template parsing engine receives input from said information management system which includes a database, a circuit analysis engine, a user define query engine and a security engine.
9. A computer system including a processor under the control of software for transferring at least a portion of an information management system comprising: a file for use on a computing device; a generating engine to generate in real-time said file by synthesizing information from diverse data sources, said diverse data comprises a database, architecture files, icons, images and reference data files; said file is encapsulated with data including layered objects ordered by a database layer hierarchy and an information management interface for configuring the display of one or more layered objects; wherein said file is then transferable to a user that is not directly connected to the information management system wherein said generating engine includes a template parsing engine for collecting data from database layer hierarchy, database infrastructure information, file references, web references and database visual and data information; such that said file is configured with: layered objects in response to said database layer hierarchy; bookmarks in response to said database infrastructure information; embedded files in response to said file references; web links in response to said web references; and data and visual objects in response to said database and visual information, wherein said information management interface includes a control to adjust resolution of said file viewed on the display wherein changing resolution in different degrees gives plurality of distinct views, the plurality of distinct views comprises a map view, a rack view and a street view.
